so I was probably chasing fewer lows with cookies...But I must

and add them up, really made me NOT want to eat...<<
And one other deterrent for me to to overindulge is "what, it's 4u of
insulin for THAT?" I'd rather not eat it. LOL One example is, I went into
the store and saw a bag of candy... cherry slices. I looked at the label
and saw that 3 pieces of this candy = 37g of carb! Wow, I can eat a lot
more good stuff and have it be less than 37g of carb. Needless to say, I
didn't buy the candy. :o) I think making us look at the labels is also a
deterrent. But, some days, we just need a chocolate fix... *sigh*
